"Geoff and his wife and son worked on the various stages of the cleaning, preparation and staining of our peeling, hail damaged deck. They were prompt, courteous, thorough and they did a beautiful job of transforming our worn and damaged ugly deck to look like new. Would highly recommend Horizon Home Improvements and will definitely call them again for future projects."

"Jesse is a multi-talented and enthusiastic guy who has an excellent work ethic. He installed a new screen door, finished our basement ceiling and caulked our kitchen countertops. He was prompt and efficient. There was a small problem with the caulk job and he returned the very next morning and made the necessary alterations. No excuses, no extra charges, just pure professionalism. Heâ s the kind of guy youâ d love to have as a neighbor!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

You can use a few different tactics to prevent your deck gate from sagging. Aside from using strong, rot-resistant woods, introducing a diagonal element—such as a tension rod or solid piece of wood to act as a brace—across the gate will offer better support. You can also use rigid joists to prevent the gate from sagging.

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

For the best results, stay off of your deck for at least 48 hours after sealing it. Giving the sealant at least two full days to cure ensures it can fully penetrate the wood, giving you the most protection from sun and weather damage later on. Walking on the deck too soon can prevent it from properly curing and cause your deck to weather prematurely.

Increases livable area and enhances aesthetic, often boosting property appeal.

Both composite and PVC decking are excellent alternatives to wood. However, while composite is moderately priced and lasts around 30 years, PVC costs more and lasts longer. PVC is also more durable, though both materials are more durable than wood decking. Ultimately, the choice between composite and PVC decking will come down to your budget and preferences.
